Chapter 461 One Item

Sixth floor of the Guilds Association building.

Each floor seemed to have a desk at the entrance and or further into the floor where logs and formal administrations were taken care of.

It usually depended on how much importance was placed on the floor and the level of additional security involved – this determined how much administrative staff was required.

In the case of the treasury, there was only a single reception individual required for the whole floor in additional to one guard at the doors that so openly depicted that they led to the treasury.

These doors were extremely thick and over them was a luminous glow that tainted their dark hue, giving them an archaic feel and visual.

Runes.

These were different from the ones found within the evaluation room.

These were more potent and they encircled the entirety of the floor in general though most could not be seen so as to give the illusion of vulnerability.

There was a distinct difference between arrays and runes, as arrays could only carry a lesser commands while taking up a large space while runes had a lot more authority to them in a condensed form that didn't waste the available space given.

Any Mage could learn how to form an array with practise but runecraft... it was a whole different game.

In the empty space that proceeded the lonely reception a few doors behind the three, Alaris stepped forward and placed his hand on the doors.

His mana sifted through from his hand and into the doors, a loud but short lived thrum echoing within the room like a tremor.

The evaluation officer then closed his eyes as he focused on the door's specific configurations.

Six runes with different vibrant colours that almost blinded Silrat showed, their order rotating and zipping around over the surface of the doors.

A green rune flashed over to place itself in front of Alaris' hand and with another loud thrum, it expanded over the surface of the doors, prompting them to creak open.

This showcase showed how much security was placed on the treasury, though Skullius who had been told by Silrat on their way here that the treasury was obviously guarded couldn't help but wonder, where this guard was.

His Koten and Machi didn't detect anyone besides the lonely receptionist.

As the doors opened, to Silrat and Skullius, was revealed a luminous swirling dark green image that the former Branch Head visually identified as a portal while Skullius identified it as such by feeling a sense of familiarity with the spatial properties he had tasted on the stout mountain in Fortune.

"Come," Alaris said as he walked through the green mass, shortly followed by the duo.

With a tickling feeling akin to being kissed in the sensitives, the trio were quickly transported into a dark room that stretched for tens of meters. Lights immediately came on when they appeared and Silrat took in deep breaths.

He wasn't used to this kind of travel.

Behind them, contrary to what most would expect, was nothing, as once an individual entered the treasury, the doors on the other side would be sealed once again.

The room itself resembled a narrow corridor with protrusions from the sides that held up the numerous artefacts.

Numerous was an understatement in all honesty.

Abundant was more accurate.

Swords, spears, staffs, shields, halberds, glaives, polearms, armour, berserker armours, spiked gauntlets, capes, robes, axes, scrolls....

Scrolls!

Skullius' senses tingled.

"This is the first treasury. You are free to choose a single item from here," Alaris said. " Though I should say there isn't anything too impressive here. A few Unique and Legendary items of note is the best you'll find. Because of the shortage of Mages and other Energy Formers, most of this stuff remains without an owner."

The Hybrid Luman was barely listening.

While he was interested in the armours, robes and staffs, the scrolls were a new addition to what he knew as established in this world.

He was curious as to what they held.

He hoped that they were something like the All Eater Scroll.

Only four could be seen and he was determined to see what they were, so much so that he hiddenly ignited Crude Vision.

As he turned his back to the two behind him, walking up to the items, his hands touching the scrolls, Alaris titled his head in a bit of surprise.

"You've taken an interest in the Prompt Spells? Most people don't value them since they are one time usage items. At least the ones of this quality. Those ones are at the peak of the Unique rarity at most," Alaris said, informing Skullius to which Silrat gulped, hoping that wasn't enough to get him killed.

Thankfully, It was his duty to inform and his words conveyed just that. Unlike most evaluators, he wasn't biased enough to market a few items out of the treasury or to give advise to his favourites. He had seen enough talent to not be swayed so easily.

His perfunctory information dump didn't seem to get through to Skullius however, as with a slight tremble, the Hybrid Luman turned, his vision blank once again, but with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

Many thoughts were racing through his head right now as he processed them all quickly with [Beyond the Hype].

"I'll take this," Skullius said while raising his hand which held one of the scrolls. A beige coloured one tied with a dark string.

A strong scent of mana could be felt from it but Alaris could already tell that it was a Unique item.

"Are you sure this is what you want?" Alaris asked with a strict visage. There were no take backs.

"I'm sure," Skullius said.

Silrat didn't air out his view as he was getting used to the idea that the Hybrid Luman had a different outlook, a larger perspective and a grander goal.

He would trust him with this.

Although among the items here were Enriching gems of great value too, he didn't try to dissuade Skullius from his choice.

"Very well," Alaris said as he asked nothing further, motioning for the two follow him out.

He extended his hand in the open air and the green portal emerged once more, leading all three men outside.

"It seems so underwhelming to have come all this way for one item," Silrat said with a bitter look on his face.

"Well, you get to know the layout of the Association in the process," Alaris said with a smile.

"I appreciate that," Skullius said while suppressing the smile that sought to explode over his face.

What he had just casually gained was really more than he could have imagined.

And it was just the beginning.

If he could get all the other scrolls...and those in the second and third treasury...

The Penetrator would be so happy.
